Franchise GM: FGM Commissioner News & Tid Bits / Re: FA bidding

« on: January 11, 2010, 07:35:33 PM »

I believe that FA offers should be judged by the *total* dollars on the contract, not the amount per year. This method would keep things simple and offer owners an interesting choice. It would force owners to choose between longer guaranteed contracts at less dollars per year or shorter ones at larger dollars.

Franchise GM: Invalid Transactions / Please Define DH

« on: January 11, 2010, 02:52:58 PM »

On 1/15, FA is opening for CI and DH. There is no DH specific sort in Fantrax. Many postion players (i.e. Jorge Cantu, Ryan Garko, etc) have a DH designation in addition to their regular positions. Does this mean that DH *only* players are available for FA on 1/15? We would have to look them up individually, because as I said Fantrax does not make that distinction.

Franchise GM: FGM Commissioner News & Tid Bits / Releasing Players after FA starts

« on: January 09, 2010, 03:12:32 PM »

Are we allowed to release players AFTER FA starts? Is there an off-season deadline for releasing players? Would the same rules apply as far as future years' obligations (75%/50%/25%)?

Thanks.

Franchise GM: Archives / Re: Scoring System Finalized for 2010

« on: December 10, 2009, 10:57:58 PM »

Guys,

I went to the Fantrax site to see how this new scoring system affected my players and the site didn't seem to use the new categories. Please advise.

Thanks.

Franchise GM: Completed Trades / Re: Trade b/w Rockies & Cubs

"I have no problem with this deal. As long as there's no reason to suspect corruption I think it's best all trades are approved. It's difficult enough to come to an agreement with one manager, I'm not sure it's in the best interest of the league to start interfering with trades."

If this is how most owners feel, I'm not sure I see the point in having a Trade Committee. If the only reason for the existence of the TC is to prove collusion, it doesn't seem to have much of a purpose. I have seen some deals that I personally did not believe were in the best interests of the owners making them or the league in general.
